You might have started using an inode that points to a data block 
that's off the device, but had previously not had enough data to reach 
those inodes.  Such a problem could have been created when the 
filesystem was made but never experienced until the drive was full 
enough.

Of course, if this disk has been full before without problems, that's 
not the issue.

I'd run resize2fs on the filesystem with the correct partition size 
(assuming appropriate backups).
